Found in Translation
Found in Translation: How Language Shapes Our Lives and Transforms the World | Nataly Kelly, Jost Zetzsche
3 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Translation. It’s everywhere we look, but seldom seen—until now. Found in Translation reveals the surprising and complex ways that translation shapes the world. Covering everything from holy books to hurricane warnings and poetry to peace treaties, Nataly Kelly and Jost Zetzsche offer language lovers and pop culture fans alike an insider’s view of the ways in which translation spreads culture, fuels the global economy, prevents wars, and stops the outbreak of disease. Examples include how translation plays a key role at Google, Facebook, NASA, the United Nations, the Olympics, and more.

Did anyone else observe #WITMonth! These were my books for #womenintranslation this year and I enjoyed them all!
I've been off the radar this month and its not about to get better but I'll try to drop in where I can.

Really interesting book that gives you a different perspective of the world and the language we use to relate to each other.

Spoiler alert but the last line really sums it up.
